According to Illiza, she informed Zainudin Amali about the initiatives and successes she had carried out while serving as manager. announcing that a National Conference will be held and that her management term will shortly come to an end. Aside from that, she wishes that the National Sports Grand Design (DBON), which is now governed by Law Number 11 of 2022 concerning Sports, can be implemented by the upcoming administration.[5]

Illiza stated on 23 June 2023, that the Village Law modification would enhance communal welfare. One way to do this is by giving local officials more authority and allocating cash up to twice as much. She continued by saying that her party is advocating for a 15% increase in village fund allocations from the Regional Revenue and Expenditure Budget (APBD) and a 15% rise from regional transfer special allocation funds.[6]

Lawsuit

edit

At the District Court, Illiza was sued and was required to pay IDR 14 billion in compensation in the lawsuit. Sayed Hasan is a resident of Banda Aceh and the complainant. When Sayed was still the mayor of Banda Aceh ten years ago, she filed a lawsuit because she did not agree with what was said. She added that the litigation was an old matter from perhaps ten years ago. According to her, when the situation arose in February 2013, she wanted to arbitrate between Sayed Hasan and the Kampung Jawa residents in her capacity as Mayor of Banda Aceh, along with representatives from Forkopimda Banda Aceh and the District Muspika.[7][8]
